Alien Spidy is a cute, difficult platformer. The game has nice graphics and a cute character, but the floaty controls and precission actions ruin the game. I really wanted to like this game, the floaty controls kind of killed it for me. 5/10

Way too floaty controls for a twitch platformer. Controllers don't help due web shooting is done simply by tilting the right analogue without any kind of crosshair help. Doesn't let you remap the controls to shoulder buttons so you need to keep switching between right stick (web shoot) and a face button (jump).

Note that the game might work much better with mouse and keyboard. I just personally don't even care to try because I think platformers should work perfeclty with a controller.

A very nice and fairly difficult platformer. I love platformers with grappling line/swinging gimmicks and that is basically what this is all about. The jumping is a little bit floaty but you will be thankful for that because it will give you time to aim your landing better. You have to be incredibly precise with both your jumpinng and swinging to succeed.

The game is score-attack based. It is totally possible to clear stages but take so many times and miss so many point icons that you are left with an absolutely embarrassing mediocre score. That's prettymuch where I am with it right now. If you are the type of player that enjoys games like Dustforce or Super Meat Boy where you practice and get better and better until you can clear levels in one fluid motion I would recommend it. It is a game for perfectionists and I'm not sure I will have the patience to clear all of it.

Alien Spidy is a cute little guy. His butt's shiny and he's got his cute little poses through the game. Don't let that fool you though. He's still a freaking spider and as such, he can be a bit of an ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥.

The idea is simple enough; get through the levels using your jumps and webs, slinging yourself from tree's and such, all while collecting little glowing orbs. There's obstacles to avoid, such as rolling rocks, thorns, mushrooms and such. Like I said, puzzle platformer 101. All in all, this game play's not too shabby! It can be fun and it is most definitely challenging! It's got some big problems though.

Granted, these problems may just be my skill, maybe it's my third party xbox controller. The controls are kinda of tough from time to time. The main mechanic of this game is shooting your webs in mid air to attach to tiny platforms, using your momentum to throw you across gaps and obstacles. Your webs do not always shootin the angle you want them to though. There's times where having to restart check points feels pretty cheap since you would have sworn you used your right stick to spit webs in just the right angle, just to have it shoot straight up.

The controls aren't game breaking, but they're certainly frustrating. A bit of a blemish on an otherwise cute and fun puzzler!

I really tried to like this game but I just can’t. I usually like almost every game that game reviewers bashed but this one is impossible to love. The biggest problem is the difficulty. I tried to play with a game pad and it’s almost impossible to get good scores. With a keyboard and mouse it’s easier but, nevertheless, the game is so damn hard.Games are supposed to be fun, to help you escape from stress and reality but with this one, you’ll get mad, frustrated and maybe with a headache! I appreciate the developer’s work. The graphics are nice and the spider looks cute but if you want to play the game as it’s supposed to be, the difficulty is unbearable.
